Generates synthetic but realistic patient records (FHIR R4 bundles, C-CDA documents, CSV) with MITRE Synthea for development, CI fixtures, demos, and leakage-gate test sets — zero real PHI. Use when you need safe, shareable test data for an OpenMed pipeline, reproducible fixtures for tests, or a held-out set for de-identification leakage gates, instead of touching real clinical data. Synthea output feeds the FHIR/C-CDA ingestion skills and openmed.eval. Trigger keywords: Synthea, synthetic…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Generating Synthetic Patient Data with Synthea You cannot develop, test, or demo a clinical NLP pipeline on real PHI without a mountain of governance — and you shouldn't have to. **Synthea** (MITRE's Synthetic Patient Population Simulator) generates statistically realistic, fully synthetic patients: complete longitudinal records as FHIR R4 bundles, C-CDA documents, and flat CSV, with **zero real-PHI risk**. Use it for OpenMed dev fixtures, CI, demos, and — importantly — as **held-out test sets for de-identification leakage gates**, where you need known-synthetic "PHI" to measure recall. ## When to use - Building or demoing an OpenMed ingestion pipeline (FHIR, C-CDA) and need shareable input that is safe to commit and pass around. - Creating deterministic CI fixtures so tests don't depend on protected data. - Producing a leakage-gate test corpus: synthetic notes with *known* fake identifiers, so you can score whether `openmed.deidentify` removed them all. - Teaching/onboarding without a data-use agreement. ## Quick start Synthea is a Java tool. Generate a small population in multiple formats: ```bash # Requires Java 11+. Clone and build once. …

How to install
mdr add maziyarpanahi/openmed/generating-synthea-data@sha256:389efa04a9049c3fThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
